Today is 9/29/10

Today i working on my trip project and its pretty annoying and frustrating because i have to do all the work again and today thats all i worked on just getting it how it was ugh! and i still haven't finished because i still need 3 images from the other file so i'm going to finish doing that on monday hopefully. and then i can start on my brochure .

Review

Well what i have learned this time since i've been here is that i can make a document and post it up on a website called google docs witch is pretty cool to me because this is like saving a document in the web and then you can go to it when ever and also if something happens to the computers you can get the document off the internet and start to work on it and i think thats cool i also learned that creating a pdf file helps us because that way all the information that you posted on the google docs stays in the documents and you don't lose anything. I also learned how to use photoshop i also learned how a blog works. In the future this could help me a lot like when i have important papers or just in general documents i can put them as a pdf file and with that i can use it and do anything with it without having to lose any information and i like that . And with photoshop i can use that in the future like when i have to do this like in a project and having to take pictures of my documents i would be able to edit them and what not.

Today is 24 of september

Today i went on some of my classmates projects and i posted what i liked about them and i also started  to work on my brochure :)

Self grading

I think i deserve a hundred because i did everything in the rubric and the only thing i think im not going to do good on is the part where i need citations i have like 4 only because i have only work on my first part o my project and in this part i really don't have a lot of stuff only pictures.

On the general part i deserve a 4 because it has everything it requires it has the page numbers and the design style

The cover i should also get a 4 because has a title and image of my country and it is constant with documents design style.

The table of Contents is well organized and it matches with the page numbers and it still has the same design style and thats why i think i should get a 4

On the work log i have the initial design and sketches that i maid it has the 3 sketches I'm suppose have
i also explain why i want it like this and it had every thing how its suppose to be so i should also get a 4.

The bibliography is pre sent in mla format and it is in alphabetical order but i don't have twelve and i don't think i need twelve for the first of the art because its just getting images and that is why i should get a 3.  

On the last part of the project i should get a 4 because my document does not have typos and has no spelling mistakes and grammar its all good and i should get a 4.

so over all i should get like an A :)

The Questions

Scenario #1 – A student sends a harassing e-mail to another student. The receiving student
retaliates with a “flaming e-mail.” Is this the appropriate response? If not, what would be?

Answer- I think that the student should'nt response back to the e-mail the student should just show an adult and let them handle it.


Scenario #2 – When hanging out with friends, one of the students makes a call on their cellphone and carries on a conversation while still within the group. Is this ok? Why or why not?


Answer- I dont think this is ok because its rude and disrespectful. 

Scenario #3 – A student logs on to a free file sharing website and downloads a song they just heard on the radio. Is this ok? Why or why not?


Answer-This is not ok because a student is not allowed to download stuff of the internet.

Scenario #4 – A student follows a questionable link to a website and downloads a malicious script which releases a Trojan Horse virus on to the school network. Is the student to blame? Why or why not?


Answer- yes because first of all the student is not allowed to download anything with out notifying the teacher.
Scenario #5 – An hour before class, a student remembers that a writing assignment is due. The student goes to the library, logs on to a website, and copies/pastes the information. Is this ok? Why or why not?

The survey

This was when we took the survey and we got the result of the survey witch was kind of interesting because a lot of people mostly knew how to use a computer.A lot of people know how to use the programs because it showed on the survey.

The Avatar and the blog

The day I created an avatar was fun because you can make it dance you can also put clothing on the  doll that you get you  can change the way it looks how it acts and stuff like that so u mainly creates a doll that reflects what you are you can also create a background for it and make it txt or make it sing or use a computer so that was fun to create.

Also when i created my blog i had to change the background and also add text to it and change the colors of the page so it can look unique.
